    摘要: A method of producing a glueless dustless composite flooring material system providing PVC-based flooring having waterproof layers providing different qualities of hardness, wear-resistance, sound deadening, and decorative patterns, avoiding the use of moisture-susceptible compressed cellulose-based filler, with layers fused together, avoiding the manufacturing complexity and delamination risks of using glue or adhesive, with a quickly-cured, UV-cured top coating providing long-lasting high performance and shortening and simplifying the manufacturing, which can be done in a sheet-form, essentially continuous-run manner, with an ability to quickly and simply change the optional design printing and texturing produced, and having an optional underlayment layer.

    摘要: Panels having a decorative surface may include a plate shaped substrate and a top layer, and the top layer may include a paper layer having a printed pattern. A method for manufacturing such panels may involve providing the paper layer with a treatment, including providing the paper layer with an ink receiving substance. The treated paper layer may be provided with at least a portion of the printed pattern by depositing pigment containing inks using a digital inkjet printer of a single pass type. The printed pattern may have a definition of at least 200 dpi. The pigment containing inks may be water-based. The printed pattern may be a wood pattern. The pigment containing inks may include colored pigments and may comprise up to 8 different colors, including brownish and/or reddish colors. The digital inkjet printer may include print heads with nozzles for firing droplets of pigment containing inks onto the treated paper layer. The paper layer may be fed from a roll, printed upon, and rolled back up again. The paper layer, while printing, may be flexible and may be attached to the plate shaped substrate after printing. A layer of thermosetting resin may be applied above the paper layer and the printed pattern. Providing the layer of thermosetting resin may involve a press treatment.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for providing a decorative combination for furniture items and/or interior fixtures. The problem addressed of providing a method for producing a decorative combination, for which the matching of said combination with respect to a change of illuminant is further simplified, is solved by a method including the steps: carrying out colorimetric measurements, under at least two different illuminants, on a first decorative element of a first fixture; determining a reference colour change of the first decorative element when the change between the at least two different illuminants is made; printing a second decorative element onto a second fixture, a selection and/or combination of inks for the printing process being carried out on the basis of a colour change of the inks under a change of illuminant, such that a colour change of the second decorative element under the change of the at least two different illuminants is compared to the reference colour change. The invention also relates to a system, in particular for carrying out a method according to the invention, the system including a colorimeter, a printer and a control device.

    摘要: A plurality of stacked door skins is provided, the plurality including at least first and second door skins each including at least one inner panel, an outer body portion surrounding the at least one inner panel, and at least one contoured portion surrounding the at least one panel and interconnecting the at least one panel to the outer body portion. The at least one contoured portion includes a substantially V-shaped indent area adjacent to and within the outer body portion, a planar area that is substantially parallel to the outer body portion and is adjacent to and within the substantially V-shaped indent area, and a declining area adjacent to and within the planar area and terminating at the inner panel.
